The Tengger Desert is China's fourth largest desert (about 43,000 square kilometers). It means "sky" in Mongolian. Its vast sea of sand and numerous lakes form a unique landscape. The golden sand dunes are like solidified waves, and the crescent-shaped and pyramid-shaped sand dunes are interlaced. The Ulan Lake "Heart of the Earth" and Swan Lake and other water towns in the desert add a magical touch12. Here you can ride a camel to experience the ancient charm of the Silk Road, and you can also experience the passion of desert off-roading. The starry sky and the Milky Way at night are particularly stunning45. Despite the dry climate, it breeds drought-resistant plants such as Haloxylon ammodendron and Ammopiptanthus sandii, as well as wild animals such as Goitered Gazelle, showing tenacious ecological vitality.
Tengger Desert, five lakes crossing, very straight, beautiful scenery, thrilling, not only can see the scenery but also play in the sand, sand sliding
It is very interesting, the scenery can only be seen for 2 months a year, and can only be seen in July and August every year, so don't miss it.

Experience living in a tent in the desert, riding a camel and some other entertainment projects, super cool, the weather is quite good these two days, you can blow the cool breeze at night to see the sunset, super romantic, the staff service attitude is super good, now off-season, tents are not expensive, super cost-effective.
Self-driving through the utv desert, you can see the dunes in the deeper. If you are lucky, you may encounter small animals in the desert. There will also be a special team leader to take us out. It may be a professional route. You will see a good flag along the way. This is quite good. Not afraid to get lost.
